New Delhi: The Department of Administrative Reforms & Public Grievances (DARPG) has initiated the National e-Governance Webinar Series (NeGW 2023-24) since September 22, 2023, aiming to disseminate and replicate award-winning e-governance initiatives of India. Held monthly, typically on the third Friday of every month, NeGW 2023-24 serves as a platform to showcase exemplary projects driving digital transformation across various sectors.
